In this head-to-head comparison, Dr. Oteng analyzes the clinical data comparing the pharmaceutical giant Metformin against the natural compound Berberine. We review the 2008 landmark study and the 2025 meta-analyses to answer the big question: Can a plant extract really lower A1c as effectively as the world's most prescribed diabetes drug? We also cover the mechanism of action (AMPK), the side effect profile, and the drug interactions you must know before taking it. ✅ In this video, you will learn: The Mechanism: Why Berberine is actually "Nature's Metformin," not Ozempic. The Data: How Berberine compared to Metformin in a 3-month A1c trial. The Dosage: The specific therapeutic dose used in clinical studies (500mg, 3x daily). The Risks: Why you should never mix Berberine with certain antibiotics or statins. 👇 CONNECT WITH DR.
